Well, they need something to argue about, I guess.

Google says DOJ's proposal for breakup would harm U.S. in 'global race with China' (cnbc.com)
This argument rings a bit hollow when it comes from a behemoth that has crushed innovation for years.
“That would hold back American innovation at a critical juncture. We’re in a fiercely competitive global race with China for the next generation of technology leadership, and Google is at the forefront of American companies making scientific and technological breakthroughs.”

First House Republican calls for Pete Hegseth’s removal in the wake of Signalgate 2.0 (independent.co.uk)
“If a Democrat did this, we’d be demanding a scalp. I don’t like hypocrisy. We should be Americans first when it comes to security,” he added.
This will likely be a tipping point for Hegseth’s career…or Bacon’s.

Construction for a new walking trail has been approaching our building for a couple weeks. I think it has arrived. Happy to see it, though, as the new trail will be really nice.

Ted’s Hamburger Shop was a staple in downtown Toledo for decades. I’ve always thought it’s a shame the Shop didn’t make it into the recent revitalization that has arrived in downtown. I’ve also wondered why the building hasn’t been demolished. I imagine someone just doesn’t have the heart to do it.

I decided to snap some shots with the PowerShot on the way into the office this morning. The camera did a nice job of capturing the beauty of this morning.

Jake and I resurrected a couple of old Canon PowerShot SD780 IS cameras over the weekend. They’re old point and shoot cameras from about 2008 or so. Jake said his friends have been using old point and shoots as their primary cameras and he wanted to give it a go. So, I ordered a battery charger from Amazon and away we go. Meanwhile, I learned about CDHK, the Canon Hack Development Kit, which enables RAW shooting and some other amazing features. So…I’m going to start having some fun with that.
